This is a record of my journey as a Muslim. I used to be Catholic and belonged to a missionary organisation. After my conversion, I sat on the board of a Muslim converts' organisation and specialised in da'wah programmes, convert management, interfaith issues and apostasy cases. I am an initiate of a Sufi order. As such, the articles and writings tend to cover these areas.
All the Arabic and graphics could not have been done without the help of my wife, Zafirah.

Swalawat from Yaqutat al-Muhtaj

بِسۡمِ ٱللهِ ٱلرَّحۡمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

The following is the swalawat which
removes the veils over the seven jewels of the heart and initiates the
discovery of the hidden realm. It is
extracted from the letter,Nun of Yaqutat al-Muhtaj by Shaykh Muhammad
ibn al-‘Arabi ad-Damrawi (q.s.).

The specialty of this swalawat is that for
whoever recites it a lot, the veils over the seven jewels of the heart will be
removed and he will discover what is in the hidden realm. And he will be safe from deprivation.

O Allah! Bless and Greet our master and patron Muhammad
and the family of our master Muhammad equal to the blessing of the people of
the heavens and the earth multiplied by the number of glorifications done on
the tongues of all the lovers and gnostics in a year.
